Our Speak & Bherd Blog - New Direction

We at Bherd Studios would like to widen our scope on our blog. We're looking to add NW artwork to this area on a regular basis. The purpose is for local upcoming artists and their fans to share new artwork. We also have upcoming group exhibitions and are always on the lookout for new artists. The focus is on NW artists (Vancouver BC, Oregon & Washington) who are not already represented by a commercial gallery. The type of artwork that we would like to feature is contemporary, with an urban edge. Any type of medium is acceptable (photography, painting, screen-printing, sculpture, etc.).

Guidelines:

• 1 to 2 pieces of artwork sent in jpeg or gif format.
• Must have a description of the artwork that includes: artist name, medium, size, year produced, if it is available for sale and where it currently resides and artist website (if they have one). If the art is on display or will be in an upcoming show, please include that. Optional: Tell us about an upcoming art show, event, venue, website, blog, magazine, etc.
• Tell us what you like or what is interesting about the pieces you are submitting (1 to 2 sentences)
• Art can be submitted by the artist or by a fan of the artist. If you are a fan of the artist, please let us know that you have permission from the artist to submit their work to our blog.
• Art fans may submit an artist interview with up to 5 questions – be creative and have fun. Include a picture of the artist and artists studio if you choose to do this.
• Send submissions to: speakandbherd@hotmail.com

Thank you and we look forward to our new blog direction for 2008!
